Winter's alluring angel beckoned me, offering me freedom and comfort. I willingly went to her, my wants lay bare. 

Strangely, the bitter cold did not sting. Her fingertips set my flesh ablaze. What was dormant now sprang to life.

She enveloped me, whispering, "A new spring awaits. Do not fear." 

I found sanctuary within her cradling arms. The snow melted on the ground beneath us, revealing promising new buds. Her lips stole my last breath as winter kissed me goodbye.

~ooOoo~

Those who found my frozen body gazed upon me in wonder - my face painted in a peaceful smile.
